President Leonel Fernandez has launched the sale of food packages that are sold for less than market prices, which are being promoted as "popular combos". Speaking in San Cristobal on Saturday, the President announced that the combos would be available at 32 sales points across the country.
The combos consist of five pounds of rice, two pounds of beans, one pound of soya oil, one pound of spaghetti, 9.6oz seasoning, a can of tomato paste, a can of sardines, a pound of salami, a pound of cornmeal and a 125-gram packet of powdered milk. They are being sold for RD$200. Chickens are also being sold for RD$100 regardless of weight.
During the event, backers of the First Lady's Presidential bid spoke out in her support.
